In this teaching, Fr. Richard gives profound insight into the nature of the historical Jesus and what the resurrected Christ really means. We are reminded that the material and spiritual worlds are part of the same universal reality. As the Body of Christ, we are all called to participate in relationship with the Divine Trinity.
Fr. Richard uses plain language to make this life-changing view accessible:
“We are created in the image and likeness of God. This dignity from God is never taken back from God’s side. It’s an eternal covenant.”
“The anointing that has been given to Christ has been given to us. That’s why Jesus said, ‘Follow me.’ We have to walk the same journey.”
“When we say that we believe in Jesus and Christ, we include absolutely everything, the historical Jesus, creation, and ourselves.”
“Only the Spirit can teach us that this is true.”
This presentation was originally a weekend conference held in Houston in December 2008.

He is a Franciscan priest of the New Mexico Province and founder of the Center for Action and Contemplation (CAC) in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Fr.
